Join Green Day event in Perry

Once again, Perry schools, parents, community members and members of the Perry Women's League are collaborating to celebrate the 2013 Perry Community Green Day.

The event will take place April 27, beginning at 8:45 a.m., with a check-in at Perry High School cafeteria. Volunteers will meet at the school cafeteria to receive their assignments, work until 11:30 a.m., and be treated afterward to a cookout.

This event is open to families, individuals and groups and clubs of all kinds. Participants should come dressed for appropriate work, including gloves and tools.

Activities will include landscaping and leaf removal for senior citizens; clearing trash and recycling items on school and public areas; garden preparation for spring planting; and Lake Erie Bluffs beach cleanup.
